A poll by Twitter CEO Elon Musk asking if he should step down has ended, with 57% of voters choosing “Yes.”
The poll garnered over 17 million votes, and Musk promised to abide by the results of the poll.
There was no immediate announcement from Twitter, or Musk, about whether that would happen.
Minutes before the poll closed, the founder of crypto exchange Binance, Changpeng Zhao, replied to Mr Musk saying he should “stay the course” and not step down.
In the past Musk has obeyed Twitter polls. He’s fond of quoting the phrase “vox populi, vox dei”, a Latin phrase which roughly means “the voice of the people is the voice of God”.
His polls have included whether to reinstate journalists that he had suspended from Twitter, which was broadly criticized in and out of media circles.
The technology tycoon, who also runs Tesla and Space X, has faced much criticism since taking over the site.
